Cody's Lighting & Repair, Inc — Local services in Hampton

Breathtaking. This Place is huge and filled with the most beautiful lights in every shape and form from the last 100 years and older. Each piece painstakingly restored with the utmost attention to detail. Richard and Glenda were my neighbors for almost 7 years and good friends.

They had a beautiful wooden set of 3 lamps, 2 colonial men and 1 woman that also had little night lights on them as their lanterns and a candle. Without lampshades the set was $250. But if you have the money it would be very unique and well worth it and it fits our area so well! The also have many kinds of little glass shades like go on either sconces or chandeliers or ceiling fan lights. They also have...
